Product Information

Full details

This Baumhaus Urban Chic Low Bookcase is designed for environmentally conscious individuals seeking unique, stylish, and durable storage solutions. Its key benefit lies in its sustainable construction from reclaimed Indian wood, offering a distinctive aesthetic with a positive environmental impact. A potential caveat is that due to the reclaimed nature of the wood, variations in color and texture are inherent and should be expected. This bookcase features a contemporary open design with sturdy steel framing, multiple shelves for display, and a protective satin lacquer finish.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the origin of the reclaimed wood?

The wood is salvaged from Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan in Southern India, with individual timber pieces estimated to be between 50 and 150 years old.

Will my bookcase look exactly like the one in the picture?

No, each bookcase is unique due to the nature of reclaimed wood. Expect variations in color, grain pattern, and texture, which contribute to its distinctive character.

How much weight can each shelf support?

The product information does not specify a weight limit per shelf. However, the sturdy steel frame and quality construction suggest it is designed for standard book and decorative item loads.

What are the dimensions of the shelves?

The two fixed shelves have internal dimensions of H41 x W80 x D40 cm each. The top open shelf utilizes the remaining space.

Is the steel frame painted or powder-coated?

The product description mentions a 'sturdy steel outer frame' which adds an 'urban edge'. While not explicitly stated, such frames are typically powder-coated for durability and finish.

What is the environmental impact of this bookcase?

This bookcase is environmentally friendly as it is constructed from reclaimed wood, giving new life to old materials and reducing the demand for new timber.

How is the bookcase packaged for delivery?

The bookcase comes securely packaged to ensure protection during transit.

Troubleshooting

Wobbly shelves or frame

Ensure all bolts and screws are fully tightened during assembly. Check that the bookcase is placed on a level surface.

Lacquer finish appears dull

Wipe down the surface with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Avoid polishing compounds unless specifically recommended for this type of finish.

Missing assembly parts

Carefully check all packaging materials. If parts are confirmed missing, contact customer support with your order details and the specific part needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This bookcase requires minor assembly. All necessary tools and step-by-step instructions are included in the packaging to guide you through the process. Typically, this involves attaching the steel frame and securing the shelves.

Compatibility: The bookcase is designed as a standalone furniture piece. It complements a wide range of interior styles, particularly those embracing industrial, bohemian, or eclectic aesthetics. Ensure the intended space can accommodate its dimensions (H100 x W90 x D40 cm).

Care: To maintain the beauty and longevity of the reclaimed wood, clean the surfaces with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the lacquer finish and the wood itself. For spills, wipe them up immediately with a dry cloth. Periodically check that all fittings remain secure.
